ios 17 Widgets are Messed Up

Hi all, my workflow has been particularly disrupted by an iOS 17 bug and I'd like to know if anyone has a fix. After my phone automatically switches to a new focus mode, such as Work, or Gym Time, and then returns to its normal mode, the widgets on not only the Homescreen but each subsequent app screen (e.g. Screen 2 that has a widget and several apps, and so on) become messed up. The widget is there but the actual settings it's tuned to (e.g. the specific Notes folder or Reminders list) are lost, reverting to some basic default. As you can imagine, this is tedious and time-consuming to correct each time. At first I thought it was just a glitch on the part of the non-Apple apps that perhaps hadn't yet updated to iOS 17, but the issue persists with Apple's apps as well. I've also updated all my apps. I really hope Apple fixes this soon because it completely inhibits the usefulness of widgets. Does anyone have a fix for this?
